12th Class Physics Magnetism Question Bank Assertion And Reason (MCQs) - Moving Charges and Magnetism

  • question_answer
    Directions: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion [A] is followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
    Assertion [A]: When current is represented by a straight line, the magnetic field will be circular.
    Reason (R): According to Fleming's left hand rule, direction of force is parallel to the magnetic field.

    A) Both Assertion [A] and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion [A]

    B) Both Assertion [A] and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion [A]

    C) Assertion [A] is true but Reason (R) is false

    D) Assertion [A] is false and Reason (R) is also false

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] When current is straight, it means the current is passing through a straight conductor, the magnetic field produced due to current through a straight conductor is in the form of concentric circular magnetic lines of force whose centres lie on the linear conductor and are in a plane perpendicular to the plane of linear conductor. It means the magnetic field is circular.
